Sunday afternoons during the off-season are usually pretty boring. However, that wasn’t the case for the Binghamton Senators on June 24, as the team achieved a social media milestone when @BSens_Hockey welcomed their 5,000th Twitter follower.

In just over two weeks, @BSens_Hockey gained over 150 followers and received nearly 200 retweets! To celebrate their achievement, the B-Sens thanked fans for their support by awarding three pairs of tickets to three lucky followers who retweeted the rally cries of #BehindTheBSens.

As the team’s Twitter following continues to evolve, fans can expect more opportunities to win tickets or merchandise, in addition to staying up-to-date with the latest official team news, roster updates, and news from the entire Senators organization. From the team on ice to the story “Behind the B-Sens,” the 2012-2013 season is shaping up to be a step in the right direction to bringing the Calder Cup back to Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena.
